“Amazon will let you download your e-books in EPUB in 2026”

So, this could be big for authors on KDP. Customers will be able to use any eReader they wish to read their books.

I’ve been on a Kobo Clara Colour (with Kobo Plus) for a while. And I’d love to slip a few Kindle Exclusive titles in. The whole exclusivity thing is kind of galling, from an e-reader/walled garden perspective.

This sounds great from a consumer-freedom perspective. But I understand there may be some authors who are reluctant or worried.

Personally... If the Napster wars era of mp3’s (ending up in Spotify/Amazon Music/et al.) taught anyone anything, it is that as long as you provide a product at a reasonable price, in a conveniently accessible manner, you won’t have a piracy problem.

Strong recommendation for my German-speaking followers. Unbedingte Empfehlung, wenn ihr Deutsch versteht: Cory Doctorow @pluralistic kann ein bisschen Unterstützung für die deutschsprachige DRM-freie Hörbuch-Version von "Red Team Blues" gebrauchen.

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/doctorow/red-team-blues-auf-deutsche-drm-freie

Red Team Blues ist ein unterhaltsamer, spannender Kriminalroman über den charismatischen Computer-Forensiker im Ruhestand Martin Hench, der in einem High-Tech Wohnmobil in Kalifornien unterwegs ist, einen Mord und eine Crypto-Verschwörung aufklären muss und dabei selbst ins Fadenkreuz gerät.

Unterstützenswert, nicht nur weil Cory Doctorow seine Bücher und Hörbücher konsequent DRM-frei auch ohne Audible anbietet 🙏
